Can read minds and not mark

The content of the fourth round of practical training does not sound complicated.

All pilots are divided into two teams, AB. The training is divided into two teams. The first one is an exercise. The mecha is loaded with simulated ammunition for the exercise. It is similar to a normal military exercise. The two sides are hostile to each other. Finally, according to the simulation ammunition The area covered and the number of people remaining determine the winner.

Except for those with particularly outstanding performance from the losing party, all others will be eliminated.

The winning side will have a new test, which is different every year, depending on the situation.

In the end, only those who pass all the training can truly become a member of the base and have their own mecha.

The warship docked at the border area. After some inventory, the ship-based mechas were numbered and divided into groups, and the final verification began.

Because the boarding time was later, Lin Han had not checked his mecha before. Before the official start, just to be on the safe side, Lin Han still received the serial number and went to Ji Meng's mecha to check it out.

When Lin Han entered Ji Meng's mecha cabin, he was humming something softly.

Although he already holds the rank of major, Ji Meng's voice still has the same clear youthful feel as his name.

The tune he was humming sounded like an old folk song. The melody had an exotic accent, like a memory or a narrative.

"...The boy was walking outside the woods."

"The young man and I met for the first time, and the shadows of clouds lingered together."

"...Youth is all about waiting..."

Lin Han only vaguely heard a few words, and Ji Meng stopped talking and nodded to him with some embarrassment.

"Mr. Lin is laughing."

Lin Han also smiled back: "It sounds good."

"Really?" Ji Meng also laughed, showing his small fangs, "I can't even remember the name of the song I listened to when I was studying. I heard it was passed down a long time ago. I liked it very much and added It’s in the mecha’s player.”

Lin Han said "really", and after receiving the other person's shining eyes, he walked to his mecha cabin and helped him debug it.

Ji Meng's advanced mecha was developed by Lin Han and his colleagues two years ago. It is characterized by carrying dual cannons. It can freely switch between the light speed pulse cannon for melee combat and the cluster laser for long-range use in a short charging time. gun. The defense system has also been strengthened. Although it is not as good as the well-known Aegis, it is already superior compared to many similar mechas.

Lin Han suddenly asked curiously: "Does your mecha have a name?"

Ji Meng seemed stunned for a moment, then said after a moment: "Yes."

His expression seemed to be recalling something: "I was laughed at before and said that my mecha is as feminine as my name."

Maybe Ji Meng's name really caused him a lot of gossip. Lin Han paused and said, "It's okay if you don't say it. I'm sorry."

"Cranberry." Ji Meng took the initiative and said, "Its name is Cranberry."

Ji Meng asked awkwardly: "Isn't it hard to hear?"

"No." Lin Han softened his voice, "It's a very good name. It must have its meaning."

Lin Han opened the console and heard a soft female voice coming from the mecha's AI system——

"Hello, boy."

"Cranberry K1, the self-test program has been started."

Some AI voice programs can be set manually. Ji Meng glanced at Lin Han nervously and found that the other person didn't have any concerns about his voice system, and then he felt relieved.

Because it was an exercise, all simulated bombs were loaded, so there was no special improvement in the defense area. It only continued the usual equipment, but it was enough.

Lin Han checked the console and internal systems, confirmed that there were no accidents, left the mecha cabin, and returned to the battleship deck.

As for the calibration of new pilots, due to the heavy workload, it is usually inspected by the base first. If there is an unexpected situation, it will be reported to the specially hired mecha repairman. However, Lin Han did not receive an abnormality report, and the boarding crew There is dedicated supervision throughout the entire process, and everything is carried out according to the procedures.

In addition to the quasi-pilots who are in urgent need of inspection, the battleship also has some base sergeants on board. Although there are not many, half of them are from the elite team, just to prepare for possible emergencies.

In addition, as the prince, Wen Tianyao also brought a wave of his own elites aboard the battleship.

Ji Meng quickly got off his mecha.

Lu Anhe said hello to him. After all, the two of them could only meet once a year. There was always too much to talk about. Lu Anhe was an informal and out-of-the-box person, so he put his arm on Ji Meng's shoulder and said nothing. Stop and start chatting about everything from trivial matters at the base to what snacks you have stocked up on recently, from daily training to your own Aegis.

Ji Meng, on the other hand, kept smiling and listening without interrupting. He only occasionally added a few words cooperatively when the other party needed a response.

"Really, it's so hard for me," Lu An and Minato cried in front of Ji Meng, "In this period of time, I almost lost my wife twice -"

Ji Meng naturally knew who the "wife" Lu Anhe was talking about and asked, "What's wrong?"

Lu Anhe said with a sad face: "It was almost going to be demolished!"

Ji Meng didn't know the reason and said naturally: "But Mr. Lin is here. If something really goes wrong, you should find him earlier."

"..." Lieutenant Colonel Lu couldn't express his sorrow. After all, no matter how unrestrained he was, he could not undermine his leadership. He said that it was only because of Mr. Lin's own wife that he fell into the tiger's mouth twice, so he had to say aggrievedly, "Next time, I will do it. .”

Ji Meng seemed to find Lu Anhe like this very interesting and laughed while looking at him.

Lu Anhe glared at him angrily, but he couldn't really get angry, so he had no choice but to pretend to vent and patted Ji Meng on the back; "Okay, old Ji, you just know how to laugh at me."

"It's still like this after all these years."

However, the two of them could not quarrel for too long. Soon the head count was completed. He Yunting came out of the captain's room. Ji Meng saluted him and returned to his post.

The first AB two-team exercise was in a border area close to the empire. It was empty and could barely be called safe. Therefore, the commander generally did not need to leave the field in person. He only needed to maintain close communication with the front line.

When Ji Meng returned to the team, he still looked back. Ye Ling was waving to him, and Lu Anhe was also winking at him, making lip gestures, and he didn't know what secret codes he was saying.

At this moment, Lin Han suddenly remembered the singing he heard in the mecha cabin just now.

——Everything is waiting for you in your youth.

Lin Han may not know who the boy he is singing about is, but at least at this moment, they have all participated in each other's youth.

-

The two groups AB have been divided, Qi Jiamu was assigned to group A, and he was assigned the most conventional QT mecha.

Each mecha is different, but in order to ensure fairness, there is no big disparity in functionality. The most important test is the pilot's own operational level.

Ji Meng reboarded his brand new "Cranberry" and, as the pilot, led the AB team to their standby position.

In addition to closely reporting on the training situation in real time, Hongberry's mission this time was to interfere with the AB team. His mecha did not belong to any team, but no matter which team it was, if it could successfully use simulated bomb attacks If you hit the "Cranberry" and the attack is determined to be effective, the team you belong to can get a high amount of bonus points.

But generally not many people can get this extra point. After all, it is their first time to participate in practical training. It is good to be able to barely complete the task in the thin atmosphere and gravity. Not many people can chase the red berries and shoot them by the way. Extra points.

The two groups AB were in place, and Ji Meng also returned to his position.

He reported to the battleship through the communicator: "Cranberry K1, pilot Ji Meng, ready."

"Command ship Vice Captain Ye Ling, preparations are complete."

"Command ship communicator Lu Anhe, preparations are complete."

"Command ship Mecha Master Lin Han, preparations are complete."

……

All positions were reported one by one. During the brief silence of the communicator, a cold voice rang.

"Command ship, Commander-in-Chief He Yunting."

"The drill begins."

-

Both groups of pilots were dispatched. As expected, some pilots still couldn't adapt to the strong sense of weightlessness right away. After starting their engines, two or three mechas were even unable to drive normally and staggered about to fall.

There are also some extremely talented pilots who succeed in one go. With smooth operation, the mecha lifts off the ground, rises and accelerates rapidly, and begins to move towards the target area.

Everyone on the battleship was watching every move of the would-be pilots.

Wen Tianyao also came up, but in order not to affect the exercise, he just watched silently and said nothing.

"Cranberry" rose to a safe position, observing the actions of Group AB, while reporting to the battleship: "The two groups are about to converge, Group A will eliminate one pilot on its own, and the two pilots of Group B will abstain due to physical discomfort. The report is completed. "

"Received, continue the mission." Lu Anhe replied.

Soon, after a short adaptation period, the two groups of personnel moved closer together, and some team members chose to outflank them, trying to steal one or two of the opponent's mechas.

All tactics are allowed as long as you can lead your team to victory in the exercise.

One mecha from Group B took the lead in attacking.

It discovered a certain mecha from Group A who was trying to shut down the radar system and wanted to take a step closer to Group B. The pilot made a prompt decision, launched his pulse gun, and attacked the opponent directly.

The mecha from Group A was about to fight back, but whether it was because the pilot was not very skilled or the final operation was a mistake, it didn't dodge in time and didn't put up its defensive shield. It was simply hit by the mecha from Group B. The lethal simulated bullets made a moderate sound when they hit the metal surface, and then exploded on the surface of Group A's mecha.

"Group A M15, eliminated."

The pilot on the M15 probably didn't expect it to be ended so simply. The mecha arm had just been raised, and he didn't even have time to open a stray bullet, so he was told this fact.

The pilot of the M15 slowly descended resignedly, while Group B who hit it successfully scored a bonus point.

The pilot from Group B controlled the mecha arm and made a fist-clasping gesture.

"It's a bit intense this time." Lu Anhe said as he looked at the M15 with its equipment removed.

At the same time, the pilots of Group B re-floated. Perhaps they were lucky enough to find the "Cranberry" on the side!

Naturally, such a good opportunity cannot be missed. The mecha immediately started to store energy again, hoping to continue using the method just now to hit the red berries and gain extra points!

However, Ji Meng was not a new recruit like the M15. He had already sensed the opponent's intention, easily dodged in the air, and shot away all the simulated bullets that came towards him.

No matter how hard the Group B mecha tried, it couldn't attack him at all.

Ye Ling couldn't help laughing: "Why does it feel like Lao Ji is playing tricks on the newcomer?"

"Isn't this his favorite time every year?" Lu Anhe also said, "There are not many who can hit him. Instead, because they want to get extra points, they end up putting the cart before the horse and being stolen by others. This kind of plot happens every year. It’s so common to see it.”

But this time, the mechas of Group B were not so stupid. After discovering that there was a disparity in strength between themselves and Ji Meng, they decided to give up and continue to look for the next target of Group A.

At this time, a new batch of Group A mechas also arrived one after another.

"Group A M34, eliminated."

"Group A M09, eliminated."

Ji Meng kept reporting the results of the exercise through the communicator.

Lu Anhe was a little puzzled: "Isn't it right? Group A is so weak this year? Three machines have been eliminated, and none of them fired a single shot. They are all in the cold."

He Yunting was still watching the battle closely, his brows furrowed.

The pilot who had destroyed three Group A mechas in a row was obviously a little excited now, and both the man and the mecha were in a state of excitement.

And suddenly, a mecha from Group A suddenly accelerated and rushed over from an unknown direction.

The pilots of Group B reacted quickly and immediately fired two shots at the opponent. This time, the pilot of Group A was different from others, dodging them one by one with agility.

It didn't even take a shot and didn't need to open a defensive shield. The opponent couldn't touch him.

"There's something about this guy." Lu Anhe glanced at the number, Group A M21.

The M21, which was fighting Group B, seemed to have suddenly discovered the "Red Berry" who was observing not far away. It immediately planned to leave Group B alone, its engine roared, and it rushed towards Ji Meng.

"??" Lu Anhe opened his mouth, "There are enemies behind him. He doesn't want to fight, but he just wants Lao Ji's extra points?"

Ji Meng chuckled through the communicator; "It's okay, I'm watching."

M21 seemed to have determined that Ji Meng was his target. While nimbly dodging the attacks from behind, he activated the mecha's advanced attack level.

During the drill, you can adjust the attack level of the engine armor, but since the drills are all simulated bullets, the power is actually about the same. Most people will give priority to pursuing hits, and will not bother to activate higher levels.

Lin Han suddenly felt something was wrong at this moment.

Perhaps it was the mecha master's intuition, but he saw the main gun on the M21's chest beginning to charge up, emitting a burst of dazzling white light——

No, no.

Simulated bullets don't have such a bright light.

Lin Han's heart froze. He didn't have time to think about anything else. He stood up quickly and said to the communicator: "Ji Meng! Quickly open the light shield for defense——"

"boom--!!"

Before he finished speaking, at the same time, everyone heard a deafening loud noise coming from the sky above the border area.

Silence fell all around.

The pilot inside the M21 didn't seem to realize what was happening, hanging stiffly in the air.

That roar.

It's not a simulated bullet, but... a heavy metal MEGA particle main gun that is actually used in combat.

Explosions resounded in the sky.

"Om-"

"Drip, drip, drip."

The communication belonging to Cranberry was cut off.

-

"Cranberry K1, Cranberry K1, please answer if you hear me."

"Cranberry K1, whether the emergency procedures are used and whether the cockpit pilot protection is automatically activated."

"Cranberry K1, please answer if you hear me."

Lu An and his voice were trembling. Later, he could no longer use the standard communication mode to send messages. He almost shouted to the communicator in a roaring voice: "Old Ji! Did you hear it, Old Ji!"

"Old Ji, please answer me!"

Lin Han recovered from his brief deafness. He had no time to say anything more, but opened the emergency connection between the mechas - after an accident, the superior battleship issued an emergency message to the mechas that might be damaged. The video has a special key and does not require a direct response from the corresponding mecha.

He tried to be calm and input the program one step at a time with his hands smoothly.

"Om."

"Drip...drip..."

"drop----"

After three minutes, the distractor was eliminated.

The harsh noise disappeared, and the emergency video link with the mecha was reopened.

Lin Han didn't have time to see the corners of He Yunting's lips suddenly tightening, nor could he see Lu Anhe's suddenly red eyes.

The video of "Cranberry" suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

In the clear color video, Ji Meng was still wearing a pilot uniform, with only her closed eyes and curves showing no signs of life fluctuations, cruelly announcing this fact.

His protective shield has been opened, but he has no idea that the other party has activated the highest attack level during wartime. Even the pilot's self-rescue system has not popped up. It only symbolically opened the lowest layer of light shield, which is impossible to prevent. Survive the heavy metal MEGA particle cannon attack.

Ji Meng's internal organs were shattered in an instant, and there was no time for pain. It was as if he was asleep. Except for the blood dripping from the corner of his mouth, there were almost no wounds visible on his body.

The room was filled with silence.

They could no longer hear Ji Meng's voice.

Instead, there is only a player that has been echoing in the communicator before it can be closed.

Lin Han felt suffocated.

That was the folk song he heard hummed by Ji Meng before.

The program is cold. It doesn't know the pilot's situation and is still in the previously set system, playing the melodious melody that the pilot chose before his death over and over again.

“The cranberry flowers are blooming beside the fields and streams;

"I was walking outside the woods with a boy."

"But we will eventually separate -

"I am so full of words of farewell that I cannot express them."

"I am so full of farewell words that I cannot express them..."
